The NJPE documentary film is coming along splendidly. Here’s a trailer to whet the appetite:

Here’s a new video from our big February concert, celebrating 50 years.

The holidays are around the corner, but the folks at NJPE are as busy as ever. We are preparing for our massive February 5 concert at William Paterson University, which will include new and classic repertoire. We are also finishing up another recording that will be released in 2018, the year of our 50th anniversary. 50 years! And I’m deep in the process of making a documentary film about the ensemble. The film includes interviews with founder Ray Des Roches, current director Peter Jarvis, and a host of other percussionists who played with the group over the years. 2018 will be a big year!

Hello NJPE fans!  We have lots of exciting things happening with NJPE, including many new commissions, some great upcoming concerts, a documentary film, and several recordings in the works.  Please check back at this site and we look forward to seeing you soon!
